So you want to manage your finances do you? Well, you've come to the
right place. CheckBook Tracker has been designed to make it as easy
as possible.
When you first open CBT (CheckBook Tracker), you'll be presented with a fairly
sparse user interface but only because no file is currently open.
Your first step is to create a new file by selected "NEW" from the "FILE"
menu. Name the file anything you like. There is not file extension
added, so I tend to use "cbt.file" or maybe you will want to use "checkbook.cbt"
Don't worry, you won't have to remember this filename every time you
open CBT. From now on, the last file you used will automatically be
opened at startup.
